Oluwa,
I wish that I lived close enough to you to come give you a great big hug!
Please know that we are all here for you and that anyone here at WHL will "listen" when you need to vent.
I know that I can't say anything that will ease your pain, but I can offer my shoulder to cry on anytime you need it.
Lots of Love & Gentle Hugs,
Marla

Simple words like "I'm sorry" cannot begin to convey my heartfelt sympathy for the heartbreak you've endured this year. Plus know that my thoughts are with you each and every day as you face the challenge of living without Bola.

Know that your WHL family is here for you and loves you, unconditionally.

STEVE...I am very sorry from my heart to yours that your sister was taken from you. Sorry, is just a small word for the empathy and sympathy I feel for you and your family even it it was along time ago. I am happy you gave room to find joy and your pain gave way to it...Hugs

Thank you everyone for your kind, caring words. I am trying to make new memories...I was able to salvage my day and by bed time, I had made about 8 dozen cookies last night. Tonight I made a choc-caramel bar topped with sea salt. I licked the spatula...tastes good to me...and too some dinner rolls. I'll post pictures later for smell a vision. Good night...and really thank you for all your support for me, through the whole year...Love and Tight hugs.

Oh STEVE, I am SO SORRY for the loss of your sister in such a senseless way at that. My HEART is WITH YOU dear FRIEND. Oh WOO HOO Marijo!!!! YEAH to COOKIES!!!! YUMMY!!!!! Im so HAPPY you made some and it made you feel GOOD!!!!! Im so EXCITED i can barely contain it! SERIOUSLY!!! My husband (Carl) just said "Oh, what made you so happy just now?" I told him and HE'S HAPPY for YOU TOO!!!!! My son, Jake, asked if you could send some of those cookies our way! LOL He has a sweet tooth like his mom! Ashleigh (my daughter) had a cookie decorating party on Monday with 6 of her friends and we played games after! It was FUN! It's our yearly tradition to decorate cookies. I have pictures of her friends from first grade through NOW decorating every year! I LOVE IT! I flared of course, BUT it was worth it!!! WOO HOO to a flare thats WORTH IT! I DITTO your last msg to everyone Marijo!!!!! XXXOOO

We Live in a MORTAL, FRAIL, IMPERFECT world in which the word "FAIR" doesn't always apply.Make EVERY MOMENT COUNT with the ones you LOVE because it can end in the blink of an eye. Love, Jeannette

they are what holds you together.
they mean more in a positive way, than the pain they cause now.

my daughter turns 14 on december 29th.
5 years ago, on her birthday, my sisiter was murdered by her husband.
the pain will make way for joy.

you need these memories to bring you joy.

i know your pain, but i also know my joy.
please hold those memories close.

Steve; there are no words that can truly express how my heart aches for you, your loss and your daughter's loss. That you are so giving and supportive to others is a testament to the goodness that defines you. Please know that, like you said to Oluwa "I know your pain, but I also know my joy. Please hold those memories close"
With understanding
Saysusie
